The event takes place within the framework of a social-sports project by the Ukrainian Football Association, and its organization is provided by the Lviv Football Association. The main goal is not sports results or searching for future champions but supporting children, giving them positive emotions, new acquaintances, and a sense of unity through sports and teamwork.

Students from the extracurricular division of Strelkovsky Lyceum participated in the festivals. For them, six thematic locations were organized: a psychologist's location, a safety location, a developmental games location, a fun games location, a football location, and a skills training location.

Each team visited all the locations, tried various activities, and received many positive impressions. Throughout the day on the sports field, a friendly, warm, and active atmosphere prevailed, and the cheerful mood of participants was enhanced by the Strelkovsky Lyceum cheerleading team. As a free activity, children had the opportunity to enjoy snacks.

At the end of each event, teams received gifts from the Ukrainian Football Association. Such events remind us once again that football is not just a game but also friendship, support, and joyful childhood emotions.
